Zendaya’s best looks

Zendaya has donned numerous fashionable outfits while promoting her latest movie. Here are some of her best looks.

Typically one to stick to a theme, Zendaya made a surprising fashion choice for the LA premiere of her new film Challengers.

The Luca Guadagnino-directed film stars Zendaya, who starred in Euphoria, as tennis prodigy-turned-coach Tashi Duncan.Mike Faist from West Side Story and Josh O’Connor from The Crown are also featured in the production.

Zendaya has spent much of the recent press tour wearing crisp white tennis-inspired outfits, but she stepped away from themed dressing for the LA premiere.

She wore a custom Vera Wang gown with a black lace bodice and baby pink voluminous skirt.

It departs from the white Thom Browne dress she wore to the London premiere. The sequinned halterneck gown had a long pleated skirt with a motif of crossed tennis rackets – a clear nod to her character in the film, a young tennis prodigy who suffers an accident.

Zendaya, 27, is known for dressing on theme for the red carpet. She wore a vintage Thierry Mugler robot-inspired bodysuit during the Dune: Part Two press tour.

The woman wore a tennis-inspired striped two-piece outfit from Vivienne Westwood’s 1994 collection for a Challengers photocall in London.

The waistcoat and mini skirt combine with Westwood’s fashion-forward edge with a feathery bustle on the back. Sarah Jessica Parker wore a green version of the skirt in Sex And The City season four.

Elsewhere, Zendaya went all-in on the tennis aesthetic. At a Monaco event, she wore a white ensemble custom from On in homage to Althea Gibson.

Zendaya’s Monaco photocall proves that quiet luxury is still on trend.

She wore a cream cabZendaya’sweater and a long skirt from Brunello Cucinelli, which caused one Instagram fan to comment: “It’s giving 1980s prep tennis pro at the country club!”

Zendaya, wearing a white collared mini dress, stuck” to the theme during a photocall in Milan. She often mixes cutting-edge looks with vintage finds on the red carpet, and this was an archival Ralph Lauren look from the early Nineties, originally worn on the runway by supermodel Cindy Crawford.

It’s the beginning of a fashionable year for Zendaya, who will co-chair May’s Met Gala with Bad Bunny, Chris Hemsworth, and Jennifer Lopez. Additionally, May notes that this year’s theme is The Garden of Time, which is “the celebration of clothing and fashion so fragile that it can’t ever be worn again.”””
